Seems like Jeff Beck is doing a short US tour, with none other than Pino Palladino undertaking bass duties.http://www.jeffbeck.com/jeffbeck_tour.html

Also check out the Mark Bass link Pete posted on the "Markbassy" thread and click on Randy Hope-Taylor in the endorsees link. Seems like Randy has given up on Jazz basses with the advent of the Dual H Stingray.
